Jorga - The Kindest One

fRUITY-Pick: Thanksgiving

Label: Muzikawi

如果想从中国去探寻乞力马扎罗山，大多数人都需要从 Addis Ababa 转机，而今日的主人公 Jorga Mesfin 每周四都会在Addis Ababa的传奇非洲爵士村驻场演出。The kindest One是埃塞俄比亚萨克斯管演奏家兼作曲家(Jorga Mesfin) 的首张专辑，是对埃塞俄比亚爵士乐的一次长期尝试，推动了埃塞俄比亚爵士乐的发展。这是一张在我六点半早起时进入到我耳朵和心里的专辑，让我在那个早上思绪到了另一个地方。仿佛云雾缭绕植被稀少，时而还会下起冰雹，或许这就是乞力马扎罗山顶的景色。

To explore Mount Kilimanjaro from China, most people need to take a connecting flight from Addis Ababa, where today’s protagonist, Jorga Mesfin, has a residency every Thursday at Addis Ababa‘s legendary African Jazz Village.The kindest One is the debut album of Ethiopian saxophonist and composer (Jorga Mesfin). album and is a long term attempt to push the boundaries of Ethiopian jazz. It was an album that came to my ears and heart when I woke up at 6:30 a.m., and took me to another place in my mind that morning. It was as if the clouds were sparse with vegetation and sometimes hail, perhaps this was the view from the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro.

Silas Short – Drawing

R&B

fRUITY-Pick: Joint Identity

Label: Stones Throw

近期很多到店的客人问起了R&B，那么今天为大家介绍一位来自芝加哥的R&B音乐人 Silas Short ，早年间动荡不安的成长的经历塑造了他现在的音乐，他也在自己的音乐中找到了家的温暖和冷静。

今天推荐的歌曲 Joint Identity 在轻松稳定的节奏中，柔和的键盘音色搭配灵巧的吉他线条，在萨克斯的点缀下是那么的温柔、舒缓。

Recently, many of our guests have been asking about R&B, so today we‘d like to introduce you to Silas Short, a Chicago-based R&B musician whose turbulent upbringing shaped his current music, and who has found the warmth and calmness of home in his own music.

Today’s track, Joint Identity, has a relaxed, steady beat with soft keyboard tones and deft guitar lines, accented by a saxophone that‘s so light and soothing.

Pharoah Sanders – Live...

Spiritual Jazz

fRUITY-Pick：You Got To Have Freedom

Label: Baybridge Records

今天的店里十分的平静，熟悉的人群像往常一样，一波又一波的重复。

每日必须来巡逻的街坊大爷，好奇进店的压马路人群，也有专门来淘盘的DJ，还有非常乐于跟你聊天的潮流大爷。甚至还有一位朋友路过，强烈安利了一波某费城牛肉三明治，确实好吃。

看着长乐路上来往的人们，就是感觉一个敞亮，当然，必须来根小烟儿。

The shop was nothing special than any other day, the familiar crowd repeating itself in waves as usual.

Neighborhood big old brother outlet online shoppers who must come in daily to patrol the store, the crowd of people curious to come into the store due to their curiosity, but also DJs who come in specifically for digging, and trendy random walk-in who are very happy to chat with you. There was even a friend who passed by and strongly recommended a certain Philadelphia beef sandwich, which was really delicious.

Watching people come and go on Changle Road is a great feeling, and of course, you have to have a little smoke.

Jazz

fRUITY-Pick: Taking Flight

Label: International Anthem Recording Company

今天对店里 International Anthem Recording Company 厂牌的唱片进行了补货，在过程中被Resavoir的这张同名专辑封面所吸引，十分清爽、温暖的感觉。专辑听感上呈现了一组优美编曲的低保真爵士乐器，这些乐器源自乐队制作人/编曲人 Will Miller 的家庭录音实验，他将自己制作嘻哈的经验和在柏林音乐学院的知识相结合构建了专辑最初的结构，随后讲作品带给乐队集体进行创作。

当专辑播放到今日推荐曲目Taking Flight时，开头的竖琴声进入，随后掉入了迷幻的氛围中沦陷在这张专辑里。

Restocked the store’s International Anthem Recording Company factory label today, and in the process was struck by the very refreshing, warm feel of this self-titled album cover by Resavoir. The album‘s aural presentation features a beautifully arranged collection of lo-fi jazz instrumentals from the home recording experiments of the band’s producer/arranger Will Miller, who combined his hip-hop production experience with his knowledge of the Berlin Conservatory of Music to build the album‘s initial structure, and then brought the pieces to the band’s collective for composition.

As the album reaches today‘s recommended track Taking Flight, the harp enters at the beginning and then falls into a psychedelic atmosphere to fall into the album.
